Fraught with over obvious symbolism, Hartley's early feature is nonetheless a joy to watch. Hal here shows us his uncanny ability to cast his characters perfectly came early in his career.
Adrienne Shelley is a near perfect foil to herself, equal parts annoying teen burgeoning in her sexuality (though using sex for several years); obsessed with doom and inspired by idealism gone wrong she is deceptively – and simultaneously – complex and simple. Her Audrey inspires so many levels of symbolism it is almost embarrassingly rich (e.g., her modeling career beginning with photos of her foot – culminating her doing nude (but unseen) work; Manhattan move; Europe trip; her stealing, then sleeping with the mechanics wrench, etc.)
As Josh, Robert Burke gives an absolutely masterful performance. A reformed prisoner/penitent he returns to his home town to face down past demons, accept his lot and begin a new life. Dressed in black, and repeatedly mistaken for a priest, he corrects everyone ("I'm a mechanic"), yet the symbolism is rich: he abstains from alcohol, he practices celibacy (is, in fact a virgin), and seemingly has taken on vows of poverty, and humility as well. The humility seems hardest to swallow seeming, at times, almost false, a pretense. Yet, as we learn more of Josh we see genuineness in his modesty, that his humility is indeed earnest and believable. What seems ironic is the character is fairly forthright in his simplicity, yet so richly drawn it becomes the viewer who wants to make him out as more than what he actually is. A fascinatingly written character, perfectly played.
The scene between Josh and Jane (a wonderful, young Edie Falco . . . "You need a woman not a girl") is hilarious . . . real. But Hartley can't leave it as such and his trick, having the actors repeat the dialogue over-and-over becomes frustratingly "arty" and annoying . . . until again it becomes hilarious. What a terrific sense of bizarre reality this lends the film (like kids in a perpetual "am not"/"are too" argument).
Hartley's weaves all of a small neighborhood's idiosyncrasies into a tapestry of seeming stereotypes but which delves far beneath the surface, the catalyst being that everyone believes they know what the "unbelievable truth" of the title is, yet no two people can agree (including our hero) on what exactly that truth is. A wonderful little movie with some big ideas.
只用了四天，一个具有感情、能做梦的机器人竟然真的长大了，地球生命在浩劫之后成功进入新纪元
“阿甘”27年后还是那套白西装，只不过曾经的目光清澈变成了现在的老骥伏枥。

真好啊 没有打架www 我也想做出jeff 。 还有金门大桥那里真的超无聊的！
好的电影 演员演技 配乐 画面 故事 都在线的一部好电影！
末世公路片的题材。一个老人，一条狗，一个机器人。老人代表人性，狗狗代表自然物性。机器人，既是AI，也可以理解为人性的物理衍生，在成长中，逐渐拥有了自主意识，照镜子，做梦，独立判断能力，拥有善良，坚韧，担当的优秀品质，也印证了人性的光辉和使命；通过文本看到，他和老人的关系是父子关系，本片的寓言性，更像是一个孩子的成长，自然而然形成了自主意识，有自己的想法，建议，乃至叛逆。被追杀时，机器不顾芬奇的阻拦，将车子推进隧道，躲过了追杀；以及夜晚，他独自坐在火堆旁，思索。机器人处理信息需要思考吗？需要我要冷静一下，需要请让我独自一个人呆一会吗？很显然，这里机器人呈现的就是一个青春期少年在成长过程中的自我疗愈。看到最后芬奇与机器人最后握手及相拥时，热泪奔流。我们大部分时候，终其一生也没能与父亲和解，真正释怀
常见的末日公路题材，挑不出大毛病，就是保守到有点无聊的程度。Jeff“演”得真不错。
时隔多年，汉克斯老了，荒岛余生的排球变成了碎嘴自作主张的Ai机器人，唯一不变的是是那份孤独。
很《辐射》，是新世代语义下的《老人与海》、《鲁滨逊漂流记》，也是汤姆汉克斯全新演绎的《荒岛求生》、《阿甘正传》。机器人的学习曲线很丝滑细腻，细节质感用心。探讨了脆弱渺小的人类，即使脱离了肉体的枷锁，以理论上永生的机器形式存在也难逃孤独的命运。唯一的遗憾是始终没有交待Jeff的能源来源问题。
看起来像是十几年前的剧本故事，不像是这几年的电影
5. 也只有机器人儿子，不会知道狗肉煲很香。
独角戏，没有cast out感人，那个排球真的落泪了
今天看了2021年令我印象最深的电影~
“阿甘”27年后还是那套白西装，只不过曾经的目光清澈变成了现在的老骥伏枥。
杰夫是芬奇的孩子，由他一夜长大开始养家。
机器人杰夫虽然没有面部表情，但整个肢体都在表演，好萌！世界末日，一人一狗，一机器人一机器狗，可惜机器狗半路报废了，不然芬奇死后，杰夫一人带着两狗也能挺热闹，而且good year早晚也得走，那时杰夫还能继续有个伴儿，不过，结尾挺阳光的，一人一狗应该还会遇到好人吧。
和《我是传奇》放到一起来看，就能感受到末日想象中的细微变化。人类终将让位给人工智能和宠物。
一开始以为会很普通，因为感觉一切都像是末日大片，跨种族友情，蒸汽朋克的公路电影的缝合怪。但是怎么说呢，他烹饪的方式还是很让人舒服，主要塑造的是两个戏，外界的坏人是一个若隐若现的麦格芬，隐去的很巧妙。没办法，汤姆汉克斯看到蝴蝶的那一幕还是感动了，带两年了口罩已经强迫症洗手的我，无法不代入。
好在关键时刻还是能闪一下光的
一人一狗一房车的温情故事，哪怕把此故事置换到其它背景中也成立。末日废土科幻我是爱的，一人一狗一房车的温情故事我也是爱的，将二者杂糅在一起我却丧失了兴趣。
